Chapter 67 - 55 Foreign Combat Personnel
Li Yi slowly woke up from his comatose state.
His whole body ached, and when he tried to move, he found bandages wrapped all around him, casts on several parts, and even his head was heavily bandaged, making him look like a mummy. Besides that, there were several IV bottles hanging next to him, constantly administering medication into his body to alleviate his symptoms.
"Is this a hospital?"
At that moment, Li Yi remembered that he had fought to the last breath with Ning Wu the night before. Then, the agents from the bureau had arrived, and he had been put on an ambulance, but he had passed out by then. He had no knowledge of what happened afterward.
"You’re awake?" Suddenly, a voice sounded, belonging to a man missing an arm, who was currently leaning on the adjacent hospital bed, looking at him with interest.
"You are Li Yi, right? I’ve heard about your case, killing eight men barehanded, even almost killing a cultivator from the inspiration realm, not bad at all."
Unable to get up, Li Yi just turned his head to look and asked, "Who are you? Are you from the bureau, by any chance?"
"I am He Xiong, a cultivator like you, injured and brought here for treatment. I heard last night that a tough guy was brought in, someone who killed eight cultivators in one night, so I was curious to meet you."
This patient, who claimed to be He Xiong, laughed and said, "I’m very curious, you’re young, your cultivation isn’t high, how did you manage to kill seven people? I’ve heard of that Ning Wu, she often roams the Ruined District, not the typical cultivation nerd. She has mastered the Fierce Beast Breathing Technique, which can greatly enhance her strength in a short period. Other cultivators end up being oppressed by her; it’s impossible for someone to rise above in a lower realm like you did, and even managed to take one of her legs."
